Its one and only purpose is to test add-ons.

Example: I have this buildout.cfg in the root of the collective.catalogcleanup package:

[buildout]
extends = http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/buildout/plonetest/test-4.x.cfg
package-name = collective.catalogcleanup
test-eggs = collective.catalogcleanup[test]

These are just four lines. Okay, I have removed a few lines for clarity, as I like to make my argument stronger. With these four lines I get a proper bin/instance and bin/test fit for my package.

And less important here, but more with Plone 3 testing: you get properly pinned versions for zc.recipe.testrunner and zope.testing instead of getting too new versions that do not work in Plone 3.

Try it.  You will like it.


I don't care what name this has on github, as long as 'plonetest' is in it: that is what the current users expect and it is what they will search for on github.com if they wonder if this is on github already or not.

Cheers,
